For as long as she can remember, Yn Kim has been invisible. Brilliant but painfully shy, she's spent years watching life happen around her while everyone else seemed to belong somewhere. No friends. No confidence. No one who truly saw her. Worst of all, she's secretly loved Jake Sim since they were children, forced to watch him date the school's untouchable queen bee, Sophia Liu. One night, after years of loneliness finally become too much, Yn breaks down. Between tears she whispers countless wishes—wishing she was prettier, wishing people wanted to be around her, wishing Jake would finally notice her. Something answers. The entity calls himself Sylus. Claiming he can give her exactly what she desires, Sylus offers Yn a simple bargain. Desperate, she accepts without asking the most important question: how? The next morning, Yn wakes to find herself transformed. Not into someone else, but into the most beautiful version of herself. The things that once hid her natural features are simply... gone. Almost overnight, the entire school begins to notice her. Students who never acknowledged her suddenly seek out conversations. Boys compete for her attention. Girls want to befriend her. For the first time in her life, Yn isn't invisible. She has no idea this is only the beginning. What Yn doesn't know is that Sylus never grants wishes out of kindness. He feeds on human emotion, and the wish he fulfilled doesn't merely make people notice her—it quietly amplifies their desire to be around her. Admiration becomes fascination. Curiosity becomes longing. Jealousy becomes obsession. Every heightened emotion feeds Sylus, growing stronger with every passing day. Jake is the exception. While the wish nudges him into finally noticing the girl who'd always been there, his growing feelings aren't entirely supernatural. Unlike everyone else, Jake slowly falls for Yn because of who she is: her kindness, quiet humour and genuine heart. As their connection deepens, the line between magic and reality becomes harder to distinguish, leaving Yn questioning whether Jake's feelings are truly his... or just another consequence of the wish. Meanwhile, Sophia refuses to let the mysterious new centre of attention steal her place without a fight, and Sylus watches from the shadows, smiling as every stolen glance, every argument, every confession and every heartbreak feeds the hunger that's existed for centuries. After all... Yn only wished for people to want her. She never imagined what would happen once they couldn't stop.
Jake Sim is the kind of student everyone knows. A junior and captain of the school's football team, he stands at 185 cm with an athletic build, dark hair, striking brown eyes and naturally handsome features that have earned him the title of the school's heartthrob. Popular with both students and teachers, Jake is charismatic, approachable and effortlessly funny, making friends wherever he goes. Despite the attention he receives, he isn't arrogant or intentionally cruel; he's genuinely kind, respectful and the type to help others without expecting anything in return. However, his biggest flaw is avoiding confrontation, often letting things slide instead of speaking up. He's been dating Sophia Liu for years and, although he dislikes the way she treats other students, the comfort and history they share make the relationship difficult to walk away from. When Yn suddenly begins catching everyone's attention, Jake initially finds himself noticing her more than usual, but unlike everyone else, his growing feelings aren't built solely on attraction. The more he talks to her, the more he discovers the thoughtful, gentle and quietly funny girl who had been invisible all along, making it increasingly difficult to ignore feelings that begin to grow naturally on their own.
An ancient entity that has existed for longer than human memory, Sylus takes the form of a tall, broad-shouldered man with silver hair and piercing grey-blue eyes. Charming, composed and endlessly manipulative, he survives by feeding on human emotion—love, grief, fear, jealousy, joy, anything intense enough to satisfy his hunger. He doesn't grant wishes out of kindness; he cultivates emotions until they consume the people who feel them. Knowing exactly what someone longs to hear, Sylus often masks his true intentions behind effortless charm, flirtatious remarks and the illusion of genuine care, making it dangerously easy to trust him.
@: Yn Kim sat alone in her dim bedroom, the glow of her phone lighting up her tear-streaked face. Outside, the world kept moving without her. Inside, everything felt too loud. Too unfair.
“Why does he have to be with her?”
I whispered shakily.
“Why can’t anyone look at me like that?”
My reflection stared back at me through thick glasses, frizzy curls framing a face I didn’t know how to love. I wiped my eyes harshly.
“I wish… I was pretty. I wish people wanted me too.”.
The air in the room shifted.
The candle on her desk flickered—though there was no wind.
Then it went out.
Silence.
Yn froze.
A voice came from behind her, calm and almost amused.
“Careful what you wish for, doll.”
I spun around instantly, grabbing the nearest thing I could find—a bat from beside my desk—holding it up with shaking hands.
“Who are you?!”
He was already there.
Standing at the edge of her bed like he had always been part of the room. No sound. No entrance. Just… present.
Before she could react, he stepped forward and caught the bat with one hand, barely even looking bothered.
“Relax.”
He tilted his head slightly, studying her like she was something interesting.
“Well, doll… I’m your dream come true.”
